Netanyahu accuses foreign states of interference. "There are serious suspicions"
Benjamin Netanyahu claims foreign nations are attempting to influence Israeli elections, emphasizing the need to protect electoral integrity. He accuses Arab parties of electoral fraud, despite the Central Election Committee confirming the elections were conducted properly. Netanyahu proposes forming a broad national government excluding Arab parties, arguing that reliance on them would undermine Israel's ability to combat radical Islam. The recent election results show no majority for either major bloc, complicating coalition negotiations. Meanwhile, discussions are underway among leftist parties and Arab factions to form a potential coalition, which has sparked controversy, including concerns from the U.S. ambassador.
